Series creators Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos are returning for the new installments of the series. The new batch of episodes will continue the story of Steven Avery and the legal battle that surrounds the convicted murderer.

"We are extremely grateful for the tremendous response to, and support of, the series," Ricciardi and Demos said in a statement. "The viewers' interest and attention has ensured that the story is not over, and we are fully committed to continuing to document events as they unfold."

In addition to exploring the post-conviction process and its emotionally-charged consequences, the new episodes, which Netflix has yet to officially call season 2, will offer an inside look at Avery’s new lawyer Kathleen Zellner, as well as co-defendant Brendan Dassey's legal team and the families of those closely tied to the case.

Netflix did not specify how many episodes would be coming or when the show would return to the streaming service.
